Shadow Apostle

Chapter 78 The Dependents of the Toad God

Punisher of the Church of Justice, Custodian of the Temple of Wealth, Compassion of the Church of Suffering and Pain, Sunwalker of the Church of the Sun

These are the secret organs of each of the four official churches in Norland.

A special force composed entirely of awakened people.

The two newly arrived punishers were young men about the same age as Horst.

The expression is serious and full of energy.

More like two soldiers than a priest.

Horst looked at the rifles and gas bottles of the two men and sighed softly.

High-pressure steam rifle, it is said that the cost of filling the high-pressure gas cylinder once is enough to cover one year's rent.

"On orders? Whose orders?"

The man puffed out his chest and replied loudly: "Following the orders of the Holy See, we accepted the secondment from the Watcher Mingyue Territory branch and were stationed here for emergency defense."

The woman's voice was equally loud: "Director K reminded us that we have a high chance of encountering Mr. Horst Drom here. Director K ordered that if we encounter him, Mr. Drom's orders will take priority."

"That's it." Horst tilted his head and said with a half-smile, "Then I will order the rifle and gas cylinder to be sent to me, or just the gas cylinder."

The corners of the two young men's mouths trembled and they said nothing.

"So..." Horst shrugged, "Where is she? I have something to discuss with her. I thought she would show up in person."

"Mrs. K is at the Justice Church. She really can't leave. She can only wait at the church for Mr. Zhuomu's visit. Therefore, we are seconded. If you have any important matters here, you can leave them to us."

Seeing that the answers from the two men did not sound like excuses, Horst thought for a moment: "Then please stay here for the time being, pay attention to everything related to the sewer, and protect these rescue workers, especially the medical personnel of the Tribulation Church. "

The two men straightened up suddenly and responded loudly: "Yes, Mr. Zhuomu."

Horst nodded and walked quickly to the white tent.

The tent was brightly lit, reflecting the reflections of everyone inside.

Jessica just walked out, her beautiful lady's skirt was covered with blood, her hands were also bloody, but her face was filled with a smile.

"Saved, Mr. Horst." Miss Bernd raised her chin with a bit of pride, "I did the surgery myself, and I wouldn't let her die even if she wanted to. Why, what happened when you were in such a hurry? Something?"

"The Scarecrow sent two punishers, they are probably the coolies kidnapped by K." Horst pointed to the man in black behind him, "I'm going to borrow the carriage to go to the Church of Justice. I want to see K."

"What?" A worried look appeared on the bloody face.

Horst looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then whispered: "I always feel very suspicious about the cultists making trouble this time."

Jessica didn't speak, just stared at him with shining eyes.

"As you guessed just now, if they really succeed, Viscount Star will certainly get better luck, but at least half of the powerful nobles in Mingyue City will be affected. What will happen?"

"Become a lunatic who has no sense and only knows how to worship Tsathogya."

"Then the administrative field of Mingyue City will become a mess, and it will be impossible to calm down in a few months." Horst frowned, "If this is their purpose, then the conspiracy behind them is probably not small. "

Horst narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists as he spoke.

It has been a year since I came to this world, and I have unconsciously become accustomed to daily life.

To avoid Mrs. Jennifer's rent and to occupy some of Mr. William's newspapers.

Visit Flame Tongue and have a few glasses of good wine and tea.

Then hunt the mystery or be hunted by the mystery.

There is also Monica in the distance and Miss Burnt nearby.

Mingyue City has become his familiar second home.

If someone really creates chaos in Mingyue City...

Horst sneered.

"It's probably not that I'm overthinking it. From what the two coolies said just now, K, the old vampire, has already estimated that I will go look for her. Anyway, I'll go and ask about the situation first. Maybe these human-faced mice will be given to me this time. My office gave me an opening gift, giving me the opportunity to pry open this old vampire’s wallet.”

"Then I wish you success. I will stay here. If anything happens, I will ask Carmen to go to the Justice Church to inform you. However, Minnie..."

"I'll hide her first. After all, the mystery of the human form can easily cause panic among ordinary people. It's hard to predict how others will treat her. It's better to be careful."

Seeing that Jessica did not object, Horst made a gesture to the two coolies, and then quickly boarded the Berndt family's carriage. The coachman was already used to it, and he whipped his horse whip and drove Horst in. dark night.

In the darkness of the carriage, two green lights suddenly lit up, and with a rustling sound, a soft and petite body crawled onto Horst's lap.

Horst did not speak, but gently patted the little mouse on the head, touching her fur seriously for the first time.

The mouse fur was thick and hard, and felt very uncomfortable, but Horst endured the physical and mental discomfort.

He gently stroked the little mouse's back.

Little Minnie trembled at first, as if she wanted to hide, but with Horst's touch, the little guy's body relaxed and lay softly on Horst's lap.

The carriage moved forward silently, and Horst felt his pants slowly getting wet. The muffled sobs of the little mouse sounded in the carriage, making Horst's heart feel slightly tingling.

Poor child, his father is so vicious, his two older brothers are not sure whether they are involved, and other relatives have unclear attitudes, so this child's life may be difficult in the future.

With random thoughts in my mind, the carriage has entered the Rose District.

The Church of Justice is located on one side of Justice Square.

The huge and towering Gothic main building of the Cathedral of Justice reaches into the sky.

The pointed top of the tower is high up, like a god in the clouds overlooking this magical world.

The colored glass formed various complex and sacred patterns, which seemed a bit strange in the dark night.

It was already ten o'clock at night, and the pedestrians in the square gradually disappeared and became empty.

But at this time, there were still two figures staying in the square at the entrance of the Cathedral of Justice.

One seat and one stop.

Horst comforted the little mouse and allowed her to continue hiding in the carriage.

He jumped out of the car and walked towards the two people.

"Long wait, Mr. Director." Horst took off his hat and bowed, greeting Mrs. K and Monica pushing the wheelchair respectively, "Good morning, Monica, have you just woken up?"

Monica glared at him fiercely and ignored his teasing about her habit of staying in bed. Mrs. K still had that kind smile and nodded towards him.

"Thank you, Mr. Horst Drom. I think you are almost here. I am afraid that you will be blocked by the priests when you go in, so I will come out with Monica to greet you. Now that you are here, it seems that there is progress." Already?"

"A group of human-faced rats are holding a ceremony under Viscount Star's house." Horst explained, "The ritual method is to let rats eat the sacrifices. I suspect that the deaths of the homeless people are related to them."

"Womis?" Mrs. K turned around and looked at Monica, "A dependent of Tsathogya?"

"Well, I heard it's called Wormyth, and they worship a big toad."

"It's really the god of toads." Mrs. K seems to know the image and characteristics of this master very well. "Fortunately, it's just Womis, so it should be easier to deal with. If a few more invisible sons come, you may..."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Director." Horst frowned and asked, "Why did you suddenly mention the Invisible Son?"

"Meet him too?" Mrs. K replied, "The Invisible Son is a descendant of Tsathogya."

"Isn't the dependent Womisi?"

"The one who sleeps in Enkai has always had two kinds of followers, the Invisible Son and Wormis." Mrs. K asked doubtfully, "What's wrong? You don't look right."

"It's nothing, I'm just glad." Horst laughed dryly, "At least the crypt worm is not one of its dependents, uh... no."

"Indeed not." Mrs. K's eyes became very strange, and Monica's expression was also a little strange, "But among the crypt worms, one seems to have converted from Shudemeier to the Toad God. Why did you guess so much? That’s right, Herr Horst Drom.”

Horst did not answer.

His expression was a little stiff.

There are no coincidences in the mysterious world.

When you discover that two things may be related, the connection is a foregone conclusion.

No threat was seen, but Horst felt endless terror.

A cold breath rushed from behind to the top of his head.

This rush will lead to tomorrow.

In addition, the people who converted to the Toad God were the snake-men who betrayed Ig, not the Crypt Worms, and the Crypt Worms do not believe in Shudmeir. I made these up, please don’t be led astray by me.

In addition, the main plot of the first volume has finally begun. In fact, the main plot has been quietly laid out since the fourth chapter, but there has been no name brand. Now it's clear.
